Ley Line with special guest Upper Reality
Friday, July 5th at The Federal Underground in Downtown Long Beach

Ley Line is a multilingual folk and soul band from Austin, Texas, influenced by music from North and South America.
Four voices coalesce. Rooted in rhythm. The women of Ley Line transcend language and genres to create a sound that seems to emerge from deep within the earth. Dynamic harmonies run like a current through textures of stand up bass, guitar, ukulele and percussion. Raised on the North American traditions of blues, folk and soul and inspired by their world travels, Ley Line creates a global soundscape; blending rhythms and influences from Brazil, Latin America and West Africa. Ley Line’s multilingual performances unite audiences around the world.

“Singer, songwriter and producer Upper Reality has caught our attention with her unorthodox style that blends soul, R&B with electronic elements. As a multi-instrumentalist, she is quite hands-on with her music as she does everything from live instrumentation to sampling like every other producer. ‘Oh My Goodness’ is a prime example of her unique style, armed with a rich angelic vocal style she delivers an eternal message of self-love and contentment from all angles. The production is multi-layered with soft dreamy synths cascading the sparse drum arrangement that switches between 4/4 time signatures and trap downtempo styles.” – earmilk.com
